Another notable thing is that Atlanta is an extremely popular destination for tourists and seasonal residents. So much of the population is seasonal such that the town’s population swells significantly during the vacation season, and drops again when the season ends. Because of this, much of the local economy is centered around tourism; some businesses may be operated only during the high season. During the low season, year-round residents will notice that the city is a substantially quieter place to live.
The town is relatively quiet, having a combination of lower population density and few of those groups of people who have a tendency to be noisy. For example, Atlanta has relatively fewer families with younger children, and/or college students. Combined, this makes Atlanta a pretty quiet place to live overall. If you like quiet, you will probably enjoy it here.
As is often the case in a small town, Atlanta doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.
The percentage of people in Atlanta with college degrees is quite a bit lower than the national average for cities and towns of 21.84%: just 11.41% of people over 25 have a bachelor's degree or advanced degree.
The per capita income in Atlanta in 2022 was $24,083, which is low income relative to Michigan and the nation. This equates to an annual income of $96,332 for a family of four.
